PURPOSE: To evaluate the influencing factors on remaining astigmatism after implanting a toric intraocular lens (IOL) during cataract surgery. METHODS: This retrospective study included parameters that were considered to have an influence IOL power calculation. Therefore, data from literature and authors' own used. axial eye length, anterior chamber depth, central corneal thickness, radii (anterior posterior), diurnal changes of cornea, inter-device differences, rotational misalignment IOL,...

All were scanned using (IOLMaster 700), which allows 1.0 mm central retinal scan SS-OCT technology. Also, all eyes assessed dedicated OCT (RTVue) on same day. Two experienced examiners 1 ophthalmology resident...
To evaluate the test-retest reproducibility of a novel microperimeter with fundus image tracking (MP3, Nidek Co, Japan) in healthy subjects and patients macular disease.Ten 20 suffering from range diseases were included. After training measurements, two additional microperimetry measurements scheduled. Test-retest was assessed for mean retinal sensitivity, pointwise deep scotoma size using coefficient repeatability Bland-Altman diagrams. In addition, subgroup compared conventional...
<title>Abstract</title> To assess the impact of an adaptive fluidics system (AFS) compared to a gravity (GFS) on lens-iris diaphragm retropulsion syndrome during cataract surgery in myopic eyes using continuous intraoperative swept source optical coherence tomography (SS-OCT) measurements. In this explorative, randomized, patient-masked, study with intra-individual comparison, patients had first operated eye allocated AFS or GFS groups same phacoemulsification platform (Stellaris/Stellaris...
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to examine the quality intraoperative visualization posterior hyaloid, epiretinal membrane (ERM), inner limiting (ILM), and hyporeflective subfoveal zone with a commercially available, microscope-integrated spectral-domain OCT setup (mi-SD-OCT) (Rescan 700; Carl Zeiss Meditec AG, Germany). PATIENTS METHODS: Twenty patients prospectively scheduled for pars plana vitrectomy peeling due an idiopathic ERM were included. Standard 23-gauge,...
Purpose To evaluate the effect of eplerenone on patients with long-term recurring central serous chorioretinopathy (CSC). Methods In this retrospective case series, 11 chronic CSC were included. The main focus was to include who had undergone photodynamic therapy (4 patients), anti–vascular endothelial growth factor treatment (3 or several episodes in past patients) (mean age 60 years; SD 9.7, range 47-76). Results Four (36.4%) full resorption neurosensory detachment under improvement...
Abstract Purpose Epiretinal membranes (ERM) are macular disorders leading to loss of vision and metamorphopsia. Vitrectomy with membrane peeling displays the gold standard care. Aim this study was assess risk factors for postoperative intraretinal cystoid changes in a population randomized balanced salt solution air‐tamponade at end surgery. Methods A prospective study, including 69 eyes idiopathic ERM. Standard 23‐gauge three‐port pars plana vitrectomy peeling, using intraoperative optical...
Epiretinal membranes (ERMs) are a disorder leading to progressive vision loss and metamorphopsia. The gold standard in therapy is vitrectomy with membrane peeling. aim of this study was assess whether the use intraoperative optical coherence tomography (iOCT), which allows tomographic visualization during peeling, enables peeling without staining.This prospective included 30 eyes patients idiopathic ERMs scheduled for surgery. Pars plana iOCT performed all cases, whereas staining only if...
<b><i>Introduction:</i></b> Central and paracentral retinal function is often compromised in various diseases. In these conditions, microperimetry an important tool for assessing sensitivity values. As diseases are prevalent among the elderly, cataract coexists. This study investigates effect of surgery on patients with without disease. <b><i>Material Methods:</i></b> A total 30 already scheduled were enrolled visual acuity evaluation was...
Classical or temporal internal limiting membrane (ILM) flap transposition with air gas tamponade are current trends the potential to improve surgical results, especially in cases large macular holes.A prospective case series included patients idiopathic holes persistent after 23-G pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) and ILM peeling tamponade. In all patients, PPV postoperative face-down position was performed.In 7 of 9 eyes, combined pedicle could be successfully performed were closed eyes surgery....
Internal limiting membrane (ILM) flap transposition in surgical repair of macular holes represents a new technique offering good anatomical success rates with large holes. The aim the study was to examine microperimetric outcomes 1 year after ILM for holes.Patients idi-opathic scheduled 23-G pars plana vitrectomy peeling, transposition, and SF6 tamponade were examined prospective case series. Distance corrected visual acuity (DCVA), optical coherence tomography, microperimetry measured...
The risk of developing stroke after retinal artery occlusion was reported to be increased. aim our study assess the rate strokes/transitory ischemic attacks in a European population and identify groups.All patients, diagnosed with branch or central at outpatient department since 2014, were asked participate this prospective case-control study. At initial examination, medical history documented 1 year occlusion, patients called by telephone interview for assessment attack follow-up period.In...
<b><i>Purpose:</i></b> The aim of the study was to examine whether air tamponade has a significant effect on postoperative tilt intraocular lens (IOL) in combined phacoemulsification with implantation an IOL and vitrectomy compared balanced salt solution. <b><i>Procedures:</i></b> This randomized, controlled, monocentre included patients scheduled for pars plana vitrectomy. Patients were randomized solution or tamponade. Postoperative...
<b><i>Purpose:</i></b> Epiretinal membrane is a macular disorder leading to metamorphopsia and decreased visual acuity. The aim of the present study was assess possible effects air tamponade, balanced salt solution (BSS), combined phacoemulsification on functional anatomical outcomes. <b><i>Procedures:</i></b> This prospective exploratory analysis included 72 eyes with idiopathic epiretinal membranes, scheduled undergo 23-G pars plana...
We built an optical coherence tomography (OCT) system with a rapid scanning delay (RSOD) line, which allows probing full axial eye length. The produces Three-dimensional (3D) data sets that are used to generate 3D tomograms of the model eye. raw tomographic were processed by algorithm, is based on Snell's law correct interface positions. Zernike polynomials representation interfaces quantitative wave aberration measurements. images our results presented illustrate capabilities and algorithm...
Abstract Retinal artery occlusion (RAO) is a common ocular vascular occlusive disorder that may lead to partial or complete retinal ischemia with sudden visual deterio ration and field defects. Although RAO has been investigated since 1859, the main mechanism still not fully understood. While hypoperfusion of ophthalmic (OA) due severe stenosis internal carotid might RAO, emboli are assumed be reason. Intra-arterial thrombolysis sufficient treatment for current research mainly focused on...
<b><i>Purpose:</i></b> Primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG) is a chronic progressive optic neuropathy, leading to degeneration of retinal ganglion cells and characteristic morphological changes at the disc. In advanced stages disease, functional tests, such as standard automated perimetry (SAP), are main diagnostic tools detect progression. Compared SAP, microperimetry offers fundus imaging with motion tracking ensure precise stimulation certain locations retina. Aim...
<b><i>Introduction:</i></b> Vitrectomy with peeling of epiretinal membrane (ERM) and internal limiting offers the chance for improvement metamorphopsia visual acuity. Microscope integrated intraoperative optical coherence tomography (iOCT) enables real-time imaging retinal alterations during peeling, such as transient thickening owing to tractional forces peeling. The aim our study was measure amounts due documented iOCT, analyze possible effects on postoperative...
